Mexican Food, Part Dos

Looks like the IJAT planets aligned last night as we went out for Mexican and I also went for a "fajita". However, I don't like my fajita the traditional way. I almost always order a Fajita Quesadilla when I go to a Mexican Restaurant. These almost never disappoint, but last nights Chicken Fajita Quesadilla did just that. Usually it is prepared just like a fajita would be but placed inside a tortilla and finished off just like a normal quesadilla. For whatever reason they decided to dice the peppers and onions and it totally changed the texture of this meal. Sure it tasted the same, but visually it was quite different once I cut into it...and somehow that changed how I enjoyed eating it. Hopefully next time they, La Nopalera, will prepare this the "traditional" way and leave the creative stuff for the high end restaurants. If it ain't broke...don't fix it.

Recent Mastications

Included here are the Italian Sandwich from Baldino's, Cheesesteak sandwich from Mellow Mushroom in Statesboro, a real sugar Dr. Pepper, the worst bagel & lox I have ever gotten from Einstein's (notice only one little piece of lox on each half), a Bison Burger & Rings from Crystal Beer Parlor in Savannah, a Orange & Pineapple shake from Tradewinds in Tybee Island, a onion and mushroom quesadilla, and some wings from Fresh Market.

Chicken Fajita Quesadilla

Got this last night from La Nopalera here in Savannah last night. Pretty much the only thing I eat these days in Mexican restaurants are fajita quesadilla's and theirs is pretty good. Theirs is filled with onions, peppers, tomatoes...all grilled up like a fajita...chicken, and cheese. Comes with the rice and all the salad fixings.

Houndstooth Grill and Tavern

Buffalo grilled chicken quesadilla with ranch dressing and mushroom Swiss burger with fries. Good food and good atmosphere.They have nice outdoor areas for dinning and happy hour every day from 4-7pm.

Welcome to Moe's.....

The Phil-E Quesadilla was the choice at lunch today. This is cheese, steak, black beans, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, jalapenos, and queso. Best thing that is technically not on the menu. It was a promo item that they came out with last year, but they never added it to the big board. It is ingredients that they already have on the bar...so all you have to do is ask for it. They also make this as a burrito. However, it is much...MUCH...better this way.
